Barbecue season open!
Enjoy a cozy barbecue evening together or rather alone in front of a campfire in harmony with nature.
Show us your best shots on the topics of barbecuing, enjoyment and fire.
Newcomer & Minimal Edit:
For those who are just starting out with photography and those who attach importance to faithful editing.
The focus here should be on the image shot by the camera. Minimal adjustments are fine (slight color grading, simple retouching)
Pros & Digital Photoart:
For you, the raw photo is just the basis and you use it to create an unprecedented work of art.
There are no artistic limits here, edit, add, remove, create as much as you like. There are no limits to your creativity here.
General rules:
- At least one cosplayer should be present in the photo
- The photo should be “child-friendly”, as anyone can look at the pictures at the convention. I.e. no sexual acts, extreme violence and similar “adult” themes
- Please send the finished image as a JPG (the higher the resolution, the better)
- Please also send the unedited photo with your submission so that the degree of editing can be understood.
- By submitting the photo, the participant agrees that HAYUKO may use and publish the image at events and on social media.
- All elements used must be either your own property, licensed or royalty-free.
- Entries are permitted from photographers and cosplayers. The permission of the submission must be clarified with the other party beforehand. If it is subsequently discovered that permission has not been granted, this will result in disqualification and a possible future ban from further HAYUKO cosplay photo competitions.
- There is a limit of one entry per person. Multiple entries of the same model in pictures by different photographers are possible without limit. However, the setting should be different from the other photographers.
- No fully AI-generated images are permitted
- Judges: Owaron Photography, Mourni
How do I submit my pictures?
